  • Stunningly stylish. Superb audio quality.
  • This is B&W’s first iPod-compatible product and it's a real high flyer. It looks like something Batman might have under Wayne Manor to play his Bat tunes on (Bat Out Of Hell
  • Perhaps?). Sonically it’s awesome

The editors didn't like

  • As weighty physically as it is in bass
  • Pricey for its category (but it sits proudly at the top-end)
  • Expensive
  • Large footprint
  • Cosmetic similarities to original Zeppelin may not convince owners to upgrade
  • Video output disappointing
  • Quirky remote
  • No Android app
  • Midrange could use more authority
  • Rivals are better equipped
  • Still kinda pricey
  • Inevitably limited stereo effect
  • Bass isn’t as big as with larger speakers
  • Costs a fortune
  • The remote control is a bit basic for something this costly. That’s it...
  • Expensive. Bass could have been more boomy
  • Only a couple of negatives. The USB port is for software upgrades only
  • So there's no way to connect the Zeppelin to your computer for iPod syncing. Also it costs £400 – that’s pricey for any iPod dock.
  • No Chromecast
  • Tricky to accommodate
  • No physical inputs
  • Very expensive
  • Sounds better on acoustic music than bass-heavy genres such as rock and hip-hop
  • Rubberised mounting stand seems better-suited to a cheaper product
  • Light on features
  • Rather large
  • No UPnP streaming
  • Fairly pricey

  • Best iPod speaker weve heard, Looks gorgeous, Deals well with bass
  • Very pricey, Remote control is a little shonky
  • Looks and sounds lush, but the price tag is a little hard to deal with. ...

  • With its compatibility with every dockable iPod and the best sound weve heard on an iPod speaker system to date, theres only one little detail that may come off as slightly less appealing: its S$1200 price tag. We can safely assume however that your...

  • Abstract:  Connu pour ses enceintes filaires haut de gamme et grand format, Bowers & Wilkins pense aussi aux intérieurs plus modestes. L'entreprise a présenté fin 2020 une nouvelle déclinaison de son enceinte Zeppelin, un modèle Wi-Fi et Bluetooth autonome qui dénot...

  • Restitution riche, équilibrée, et précise, Grave percutant et bien défini, Réserve de puissance généreuse, Conception extrêmement soignée, Mise en route ultra rapide et simple, Application Bowers & Wilkins fluide et agréable à utiliser, Captation vocale d
  • Léger manque de cohérence entre graves/médiums/aigus, extrêmes aigus un poil trop en avant, Absolument aucune possibilité de connexion filaire (pas même de RJ45! ), Possibilités connectées assez restreintes (peu de services de streaming supportés, pas de
  • La continuité dans le changement: voilà une formule qui résume parfaitement cette nouvelle version de l'emblématique Zeppelin, qui se modernise sans prise de risque. Malgré ses performances sonores toujours aussi solides, l'enceinte de Bowers & Wilkins s...

  • son de bonne qualité, jolie look,le streaming sans fil Airplay fontionne très bien.
  • chère, le dock n'est pas amovible et est donc peu estétique lorsqu'on utilise AirPlay.
  • Malgré ses airs de ballon dirigeable façon Hindenburg, le Zeppelin Air de Bowers & Wilkins n’est pas un désastre. Cette station d’accueil pour terminaux iOS est esthétique, délivre un son de grande qualité et intègre la technologie sans fil AirPlay d’A...

  • Allure et ergonomie, Possibilité de relier n'importe quel iPod sans ajouter d'embout, Sortie vidéo, Qualité sonore, Idéal pour un grand salon
  • Prix !, Basses qui manquent un peu de profondeur, Sature un peu vite aves certaines musiques
  • Un produit à l'allure et à la finition irréprochables. Dotée d'un son qui ravira une large partie du public, les plus mélomanes lui reprocheront peut-être une saturation un peu rapide sur certains morceaux....

  • Design original, Excellente finition, Puissance sonore importante, Musicalité, Connectivité, Alimentation intégrée
  • Prix élevé
  • Bien connu des mélomanes et des audiophiles sous le nom B&W, Bowers & Wilkins ne propose pas seulement des enceintes acoustiques de très haute qualité, mais également toute une série daccessoires audio tel que ce système audio mono corps de type 2.1 n...
